    Just picked this new project up, Wont be starting on it for awhile as I still have to finish the Buick, But I just couldn't p*** it up, Some really nice work done on car, Chop was done excellent along with many other mods done to body including the Pakard tail lights, Should be one Sweet ride when done. :D

    Going to collect some parts for awhile,and finish up the 53 Buick, maybe get started on body work in the spring, Still a lot to do on it, no motor,trans and a ton of other stuff to make it a runner, The Olds bumperis a 56 & the rear Bumper is 69 Chevelle setup to set the Packard tail lights right into body & bumper, the rear roof section also came from a Packard I think, All the major surgery is pretty much done so its just a matter of tweaking it the way I want it.

    I like it, it needs a little more radius on the hood corners or extend the hood to the grill maybe. You could also leave it just like it is.It's way kool

    The Hood, Grill and back corners of hood need some work, Who ever did the work on those did not do other work,I think car got p***ed around for awhile, But its Rock Solid and there is nothing done that cant be fixed, I have Big plans for it if all goes right ?

    I put the Buick on when I first got it, Pretty much the same visually other than a Wheel change but everything Mechanical & electrical has been redone & I do mean everthing, There was not one thing on car that was not garbage when I got it, Its going to be my daily driver in the summer so I wanted to make it safe & reliable.

    Here are a few shots of the Buick, Still have to finish door gl*** & vent windows, Waiting on another master cylinder to finish brakes, Took the wheels off the 54 chevy & put them on Buick, Its pretty much drivable after that, Now that were suppose to get our first real winter Blizzard. :confused:
